A listed lithium smelter in south-west China's Sichuan province shut down its production for maintenance at the end of March, sources told SMM.

SHANGHAI, Apr 8 (SMM) – A listed lithium smelter in south-west China's Sichuan province shut down its production for maintenance at the end of March, sources told SMM. This is likely to affect 800 mt of lithium carbonate supply and may offer some support for the decreasing prices, according to SMM’s calculation

Lithium carbonate producers in China to be compelled to cut output in Q2

Inventory pressure of lithium carbonate, a raw material for digital and power batteries, may continue to mount in April as Chinese lithium salt producers have not yet planned to wind down production. Elevated inventories together with limited downsides in lithium carbonate prices with support from costs, however, may trigger output cut in the second quarter.
